Pet Rock*
2nd Place
Scott Hopkins

I am not allowed to have pets where I live so this is the next best thing. The bright side is I can't kill a rock. I call him Fido..The collar makes him feel tough.


other sizes: small medium original auto

LOL! Very funny! Oh, but I hate pets that live so long you have to will them to your heirs. It's just not fair to saddle someone else with that responsibility! ~ Lonnit

This has to get a '10' for creativity! I have been "massaging my creativity bump" (trying to make it grow) for years and feel I have come a long way, but when I see something like this, I realize I have a long, long way ahead! --Olaf

Love this shot - Adam

Funny shot.

I seem to have a thing in this challenge with DOF and PS blurring... have you added extra blur here Scott? It seems as if the drop off is too severe. Phil

Great idea and shot too. Has a disturbing association for me, but these are sad times.

Great shot, Scott!
